Cooking tips:
- To make perfect hard-boiled eggs, place the eggs in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, turn off the heat and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10-12 minutes. Then, drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
- For a healthier version, you can use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.
- You can also add other ingredients to the deviled egg mixture, such as chopped celery, onion, or pickles, to give it more flavor and texture.
